Feature Story–the Lede
Don’t judge a book by its cover. This principle holds true for Morningside Senior, Michael Beavers.
On the outside, he may appear intimidating, with a scraggly brown and auburn colored beard; shaggy un-kept hair, and a barreling chest. He looks like a mix between Jack Black and a mountain man. His occasional Bob Marley t-shirt may give you the impression he’s a bit of a hippie. But if you take the time to talk with him, you’ll realize he’s not intimidating at all. He’s fairly mild-mannered, likes to watch South Park, listens to Bob Seger, and is an aspiring elementary school teacher. Yes, a teacher.
